Terrance Jean-Jacques is waiting his turn for the UFC call. Heavyweight prospect Jean-Jacques (8-3) has won five of his past six, with his lone loss in that stretch against Season 30 “Ultimate Fighter” finalist Zac Pauga. The 29-year-old NCAA All-American wrestler most recently was seen in action in May when he beat Yimaz Wildman by unanimous decision to win the “Road To ONE” heavyweight tournament. Although winning the tournament has given Jean-Jacques an invitation to be a part of the ONE Championship roster, he’s looking at the bigger picture. “I feel like I’m UFC ready because I’ve had the time to develop over the years I’ve been doing this,” Jean-Jacques told MMA Junkie. “I’ve had to watch lesser fighters get a shot at (Dana White’s) Contender Series and get the call up, and I know I can beat some of these guys.
